New York Giants' defensive triplets ranked 15th in NFL ahead of 2026 season

The New York Giants' defensive triplets, consisting of Brian Burns, Arvell Reese, and Jevon Holland, have been ranked 15th out of 32 NFL teams by Sports Illustrated as they prepare for the 2026 season. Despite a strong performance from Burns, who recorded 16.5 sacks in 2025, the overall effectiveness of the trio remains unproven. The Giants' defense has seen some upheaval, with the offseason trade of Pro Bowl lineman Dexter Lawrence, leading to a restructured defensive line. The team aims to maximize the potential of its defensive depth, aiming to improve from last season’s performance, as they look to solidify their identity heading into the season.
